After Wang Yaqiao found a chair and sat down, Xiao Zhenlei said to him as if no one was around: "According to the time, Enahai is estimated to be there soon, and after he arrives, he may have to contact this Lord Qin to inquire or directly send someone over to inquire about the situation!" As he spoke, he stopped and turned his head to ask Qin Dahai: "Yes, Officer Qin?" ”

Qin Dahai didn't expect Xiao Zhenlei to even guess this detail, so he had to hang his head and nod and said: "Yes, after he escorted the prisoner to arrive, he had to go up to the end of the table to supervise and behead, just facing my shop, you can see me here, when I saw him look over, I raised my hand to indicate that it was normal, if I shook my head, it means that something is wrong!" ”

The gun Xiao Zhenlei held pushed hard against Qin Dahai's waist, leaned over and said in a deep voice: "Officer Qin, I'm stupid, don't lie to me, otherwise, as soon as I get stupid, I can't pull the trigger with a flick of my hand, don't blame me when the time comes!" ”

Qin Dahai was so frightened that he trembled, if Xiao Zhenlei had been vicious, he would not be afraid, but Xiao Zhenlei had always been tepid, always with a smile on his face, but his eyes were full of murderous intent, which made him feel chills in his heart, he hurriedly said: "No, no, no, this good man, I swear that what I said is the truth, if there is a lie, let me die with ten thousand arrows through my heart!" ”

Xiao Zhenlei nodded and said to Wang Yaqiao: "Brother Jiuguang, I want to hand over this place to you, and the Qin team officer will also hand it over to you, arrange two brothers in each shop, and the others will follow me to the top of the building to suppress the formation, and we will use heavy firepower on the roof to press the formation for you!" When the Oni Sea takes out the order and throws it on the ground, and the executioner raises his knife to cut it, you will start shooting. As long as the gun goes off, the executioner will definitely not dare to cut it again. First of all, you have to kill the Qing troops on the edge of the headline, and empty the Qing troops around the captured revolutionary party. At this time, the scene will be chaotic, but you can no longer fire, but keep an eye on those Qing soldiers, the people will definitely run around after being frightened, but most of them will still flee in the north and south directions, you don't care about these, let the people escape, and also prevent the Qing army from shooting at the people in anger, without the people we can fire without scruples. Don't worry about our lack of manpower, you must know that we have now controlled the four sides of the entire vegetable market entrance and the upstairs and downstairs, although there are few people, but we occupy an absolute geographical advantage, and there are heavy weapons, even if the Qing army has two hundred more people, I am sure that I can save people and escape, after we fire upstairs, the Qing army must be suppressed to hide in the east shop. At this time, you quickly went out to save people, and after saving people, retreated in the direction of the north gate, and I have arranged for someone to meet us at the city gate, is it clear? ”

Wang Yaqiao nodded. Another question came to mind: "Okay, but what if something happens halfway?" In the process of saving people, what should we do if there is a situation that we cannot control? ”

Xiao Zhenlei waved his hand and said, "This is going to be improvised, I'm upstairs." If the situation changes, I will let you know loudly what to do! ”

"Good. I know! ”

Xiao Zhenlei handed over Qin Dahai to Wang Yaqiao and Ma Xiaoshuang to take care of, and he went directly to the top of the building. And Wang Yaqiao took out a pistol and looked at Qin Dahai, and asked Ma Xiaoshuang to allocate manpower.

After Xiao Zhenlei arrived at the top of the building, he saw many Qing soldiers lying on the roof, Liu Ping was collecting the guns and ammunition of these Qing soldiers on the roof of the building, and counted them, there were more than 40 of these Qing soldiers, all of whom were unconscious, and their hands were tied.

Seeing Xiao Zhenlei coming up, Liu Ping straightened up and shouted, "Sir??????"

Xiao Zhenlei waved his hand and said, "You continue!" As he spoke, he put down his backpack and took out a Zeiss telescope from it to observe the situation around the entrance of the vegetable market.

After a while, Ma Xiaoshuang came to the top of the building with more than a dozen people, Xiao Zhenlei turned his head and saw it, put down the binoculars, and said to Ma Xiaoshuang: "Let the brothers drag these Qing soldiers over there first, don't get in the way, and find something to block their mouths, lest some people have strong resistance, and it will be troublesome to wake up and scream before we start, and we will also send someone to inform us."

"Okay, big brother!" Ma Xiaoshuang agreed, and immediately beckoned his brothers to do it together, and soon dragged these Qing soldiers to the other side of the roof, and at the same time sent people to the bottom to gag the mouths of the Qing soldiers in those shops.

As it gets closer and closer to noon, there are more and more people who come to kill people at the entrance of the vegetable market, and the entrance of the vegetable market begins to look a little crowded, some officials will surround the guillotine to prevent the people from approaching, the guillotine has been completely built, more than a dozen executioners with machetes in their hands walked to the stage and sat down to rest, these executioners are all bare-chested and exposed, and the chest hair on the chest is a little scary.

At this time, suddenly from the south street ran two groups of Qing soldiers with red tassel guns in their hands, these soldiers began to stand guard on the street after arriving near the entrance of the vegetable market, standing one person every two or three meters, they drove all the pedestrians to the side of the street, the middle of the street was empty and no one was allowed to leave, and the people on the street knew that the prisoner was going to be taken over soon.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, all go to the side, the chaotic party will soon be escorted over, and if you walk in the middle, you will be regarded as the same party to kill!" A Qing soldier stood in the middle of the street with a sword handle and a whip in his hand, shouting, and other soldiers drove the crowd away with spears.

In addition, there were officials carrying gongs while walking in front and knocking, shouting for the people to get out of the way and not to collide with the officers and soldiers.

In the process of the Qing soldiers driving the people to the side of the road, there was some confusion among the people, but the problem was not big, and it soon calmed down, and the people came to see the excitement, but no one dared to rush into the Qing soldiers.

is about to be executed and beheaded, many shops in this neighborhood have no business to be temporarily closed, some superstitious shopkeepers have to lock up the shop, give the guys a holiday, so as not to be rushed in by the evil luck of bad luck, only the business of the teahouse and restaurant in this neighborhood is very hot, there are many more guests drinking tea in the teahouse and eating in the restaurant than usual, these people are here to talk about the beheading of the vegetable market, especially on the second floor, you can see the scene of the vegetable market entrance The teahouse and restaurant are crowded, It is estimated that when the prisoners are brought over, there will be more people in these places.

Soon Wang Yaqiao sent someone to tell Xiao Zhenlei, the manpower had been arranged, and all the guns and ammunition of the stunned Qing soldiers had been sent away.

Xiao Zhenlei took out his pocket watch and looked at it, it was already about eleven twenty o'clock, and the Ena Sea should almost come, according to the distance and foot strength, the time was about the same.

At this time, a group of people came from the south street, there were not many people, only a dozen, a sedan chair was surrounded in the middle, a few people in front held a sign of "avoidance", and someone shouted in front: "Lord Li of Zhixian County has arrived, and the idle people are waiting to avoid!" ”

It turned out to be Li Xiumei, the acting magistrate of Shanghai, don't look at it as just a magistrate, but this is Shanghai Tang, the most open city in the Qing Dynasty, and the year's finance and taxes are equivalent to a province in other places. As long as Li Xiumei makes a casual catch, the money she gets is enough to spend for a lifetime.

Li Xiumei's sedan chair entered the vegetable market and stopped next to the guillotine in the east, and when Li Xiumei got down from the sedan chair, all the officials and Qing soldiers knelt down to greet him: "See Lord Li!" ”

Li Xiumei raised her hand with a solemn face and said, "All are exempt from courtesy, get up!" With that, he took a step up to the seat on the east side of the guillotine and sat down, while the others shouted, "Thank you!" ”

After only a few minutes, the sound of horses' hooves and some slightly neat steps came, and a long line of people and horses appeared in Xiao Zhenlei's sight, he immediately picked up the telescope and looked south, only to see a Qing Dynasty official riding a tall horse, burly, wearing a five-grade official mansion, and a single-eyed dazzling Qing Dynasty official appeared in the telescope, this is the Enahai, Xiao Zhenlei can guess that it is him without asking others.

Xiao Zhenlei's brothers have rifles in their hands, at this distance, only one bullet can kill Enahai, but he knows that killing Enahai now can't save those revolutionary parties, Wang Yaqiao only has forty people in his hands, all of them are deployed in Caishikou, and the prisoners are still on the south street, there are more than 100 people over there, plus dozens of officials and soldiers from the county government here in Caishikou, it is estimated that they can't rush over, let alone save people, if you want to save people, you have to wait until almost all the Qing soldiers enter Caishikou, Within the range of his machine gun, he could only win with less if he was surrounded on all sides, and only by taking advantage of the almost closed terrain at the entrance of the vegetable market could he have a chance of winning.

The escort procession is getting closer to the entrance of the vegetable market, and unlike other criminals who have been beheaded in the past, for example, when some Jiangyang thieves or corrupt officials who have harmed the people are beheaded, the people along the street will throw rotten eggs, rotten vegetable leaves, and stones at the prisoners, and sometimes the prisoners will be smashed to the stench or their heads will be broken before they are sent to the guillotine.

However, this time, no one threw rotten eggs or rotten vegetable leaves, and the people behind the Qing soldiers standing guard looked at the revolutionaries who were escorted over with sympathetic eyes, these people were just small shrimps, and there was no important figure of the real revolutionary party in Shanghai, only Li Haiqiu, Chen Qimei's assistant to the party affairs, was rescued.

Among the onlookers on both sides of the street were the families of these arrested revolutionaries, or their wives or parents, who saw their sons being escorted over and about to be beheaded, and were ready to immediately break through the crowd to shout, but they were grabbed by their relatives and friends and covered their mouths.
